A short summary for this issue. Apple server uses insufficient set of cypher suites: Cipher Suite: TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 (0xc02f) Cipher Suite: TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 (0xc027) Cipher Suite: TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA (0xc013) Cipher Suite: TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 (0x009e) Cipher Suite: TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 (0x0067) Cipher Suite: TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 (0x009c) Cipher Suite: TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 (0x003c) Cipher Suite: TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 (0x1301) Cipher Suite: TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 (0x1302) So if anybody else uses ECC certificate be aware the suites above are all RSA. Going to submit a bug report now.
